A buttery, cinnamon sugar filling spiraled within sweet, soft dough -- with the added flavor and benefit of sourdough.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour ( 560 grams)
  • 1 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sourdough discard (227 g)
  • 1 cup water (236 grams)
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted 114 g)
  • 1/4 cup honey (84 g)
  • 1/2 cup butter (softened - 114 grams)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (200 grams)
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon
  • 6 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (120 grams)
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup or honey (168 grams for honey)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

  1. 1

    Melt butter and set aside to cool.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit, then go ahead and prepare your cast iron skillet or baking dish by lightly brushing it with butter or oil.

  3. 3

    To a large bowl, add all of the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Combine.

  4. 4

    Now add the wet ingredients: sourdough discard, water, melted (and cooled) butter, and honey.

  5. 5

    Mix together until a ball forms. This may take about three to five minutes.

  6. 6

    Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface, then roll with a rolling pin, working it into a rectangle shape that is about 1/4 inch thick.

  7. 7

    In a separate small bowl, add the softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon, stirring until the ingredients come together.

  8. 8

    Add cream cheese, heavy cream, maple syrup or honey, and vanilla extract to a medium saucepan.
